New century, new alliance,
A Marquisate put in the bark,
To him who the stronger of the two will carry it off,
Of a Duke and of a King, falley of Florence,
Port at Marseilles, the Damsel in France,
The chief fort of Catherine will be razed.

II.

How much gold and silver will have to be spent
When the Count will desire to take the town,
Many thousands and thousands of soldiers,
Drowned, killed, without doing anything there,
In stronger land will he set foot,
Pygmy aid by the Copy-holders.

III.

The Town without above below,
Overturned by a thousand shots
From cannons: and fortifications underground:
Five years will it hold: everything delivered up,
And left for its enemies,
The water will make war upon them afterwards.

Of a circle, of a lily, there will be born a very great Prince,
Very soon, and late come into his Province,
Saturn in Libra in exaltation:
The House of Venus in decreasing force,
The Lady thereafter masculine under the bark,
In order to maintain the happy Bourbon blood.

When the treacherous enterprise of Robin
Will cause Lords and a great Prince trouble,
Known by Lafin, his head will be cut off:
The feather in the wind, female friend to Spain,
The messenger trapped while in the country,
And the scribe will throw himself into the water.

VII.

The leech will attach itself to the wolf,
When the grain will sink into the sea,
But the great Prince without envy,
Through his embassy he will give him
Of his own grain to give him life,
He will provide himself with it for time of need.

VIII.

Shortly before the opening of commerce,
An ambassador will come from Persia,
To bring news to the Frank land:
But unreceived, vain hope,
It will be an offense to his great God,
Pretending to desire to abandom him.

Two standards from the direction of Auvergne,
The left one taken, for a time prison rule,
And a Lady will want to lead her child
To the Copy-holder but the affair is discovered,
Danger of death and murmur throughout the land,
German, brother and sister prisoner in the Bastille.

During the century one will see two streams
Flood an entire land with their waters,
And to be submerged by streams and fountains:
Shots at Montfrin Bou&cced;oiron and Alais,
Very often troubled by the Gardon,
Six hundred and four, and thirty monks.

XII.

Six hundred and five very great news,
The great quarrel of the two Lords,
It will take place near Gevaudan,
At a church after the offering
Murder committed, the priest begs
Trembling with fear he will flee.

Six hundred and six or nine, the adventurer
Will be surprised by gall put in an egg,
And shortly afterwards he will be out of power
Through the powerful Emperor-General
To whom the world has not an equal,
Of which each iwll render him obedience.

XIV.

At the great siege great crimes again,
Starting again worse than ever
Six hundred and five in the spring,
There will take place the capture and recapture,
Soldiers in the fields until winter
Then afterwards it will begin again.

The newly elected master of the great vessel,
He will see shining for a long time the clear flame
Which serves this great territory as a lamp,
And at which time armed under his name,
Joined with the happy ones of Bourbon
East, West and West his memory.

XVI.

In October six hundred and five,
The purveyor of the marine monster
Will take the unction from the sovereign,
Or in six hundred and six, in June,
Great joy for the common and the great ones alike,
Great deeds after this great baptism.

XVII.

Au mesme temps vn grand endurera,
Ioyeux mal sain, l'an complet ne verra,
Et quelques vns qui seront de la feste,
Feste pour vn seulement, à ce iour,
Mais peu apres sans faire long seiour,
Deux se donront l'vn à l'autre de la teste.
At the same time a great one will suffer,
Merry, poor health, he will not see the completion of the year,
And several who will be at the feast,
Feast for one only, on this day,
But shortly afterwards without delaying long,
Two will knock their heads together.

Considering the sad Nightingale
Who with tears and laments renews her anguish,
By such means making her days shorter,
Six hundred and five, she will see the end of it,
Of her torment, the cloth already woven,
By means of it sinister aid will she have.

Six hundred and five, six hundred and six and seven,
It will show us up to the year seventeen,
The anger, hatred and jealousy of the incendiary,
For a long enough time hidden under the olive tree,
The Crocodile has hidden on the land,
That which was dead will then be alive.

XX.

He who several times has
Held the cage and then the woods,
He will return to the first state
His life safe shortly afterwards to depart,
Still not knowing how to know,
He will look for a subject in order to die.

The author of the evils will begin to reign
In the year six hundred and seven without sparing
All her subjects who belong to the leach,
And then afterwards she will come little by little
To the Frank country to relight her fire,
Returning whence whe has come.

He who will tell, revealing the affair,
As with death, death will be able to do well
Blows of daggers which will have been incited by one,
His end will be worse than he will have devised to make
The end leads the men on land,
Watched for everywhere, as much by day as by night.

When the great ship, the prow and rudder
Of the Frank land and its vital spirit,
By the sea shaken over reef and billow,
Six hundred and seven and ten, heart besieged
And afflicted by the ebbings of its body,
Upon this evil its life being renewed.

The Mercurial not of too long a life,
Six hundred and eight and twenty, great sickness,
And yet worse danger from fire and water,
His great friend will the be against him,
With such hazards he could divert himself well enough,
But in brief, the sword will cause his death.

XXV.

Six hundred and six, six hundred and nine,
A Chancellor large as an ox,
Old as the Phoenix of the world,
In this world will shine no more,
He will pass with the ship of oblivion,
To the Elysian Fields to make his round.

Two brothers are of the Ecclesiastical order,
One of them will take up the pike for France,
Another blow if in the year six hundred and six
He is not afflicted with a great malady,
Arms in his hand up to six hundred and ten,
Scarcely much further does his life extend.

Celestial fire from the Western side,
And from the South, running up to the East,
Worms half dead without finding even a root.
Third age, for Mars the Warlike,
One will see fires shing from the Carbuncles.
Age a Carbuncle, and in the end famine.

The year one thousand six hundred and nine or fourteen,
The old Charon will celebrate Easter in Lent,
Six hundred and six, in writing he will place it
The Physician, by all this is astonished,
At the same time summoned in person
But for certain one of them will appear.

XXIX.

The Griffon is able to prepare himself
For resisting the enemy,
And to reinforce will his army,
Otherwise the Elephant will come
He who will suddenly surprise him,
Six hundred and eight, the sea aflame.

In a short while the Physician of the great disease,
And the leech of the unequal rank and order,
They will set fire to the Olive branch,
Post running, from one side and another,
And by means of such fire their Empire approached,
Being rekindled by the Frank saliva finished.

He who has overcome the hazards,
Who has ne'er dreaded sword, fire, water,
And of the country very close to Toulouse,
By a blow of steel the entire world astonished,
Strangely given by the Crocodile,
People delighted to see such a spectacle.

Wine in abundance, cery good for the troops,
Tears and sighs, complaints, groans and alarm
The Sky will cause its thunderbolts to rain
Fire, water and blood, all mixed together,
Sun's heaven, shaking and trembling from it,
That which can be seen clearly no living person has e'er seen.

Very soon after there will be very great misery,
From the scarcity of grain, which will be on the land
Of Dauphiny, Provence and Vivarais,
To Vivarais it is a poor prediction,
Father will eat his own son,
And from the woods they will eat root and acorn.

Princes and Lords will all make war against one another,
First cousin brother against brother,
Araby by the happy ones of Bourbon finished,
The Princes of Jerusalem very agreeable,
Of the heinous and execrable deed committed,
They will feel the effects on the bottomless purse.
